I don't have a gym membership. However, I do have a zumba membership at a local dance studio. It's $65 per month for unlimited classes. I can go every day of the week if I want to! I love it!0

I am sadly getting dropped off my family plan next month. I am the US and will be paying $42/month for a YMCA with full fitness center, lap pool, and group exercise classes included. Worth every penny.0

I'm in the US, I pay $14.95 a month for Crunch Fitness. I love it, I feel like I'm actually stealing from the gym because it's so cheap compared to the amount of hours I'm there, plus my husband gets in for free as my guest, so it's like 2 for the price of 1 lol.0

In the US as well. I pay $90 for a 6 month membership at my local gym which is owned by the city. Some of the equipment has a little rust on it, but they have two power racks, it's never packed with people, and the price is right. The hours could be better though.0

I read lots of bad opinions about Planet Fitness on these boards. What's the deal? I've never been to one, so I'm really just being nosy as to why...0 -
41 a month at Mountain Side Fitness. Love the gym but its getting really crowded lately.0

£40 a month which includes classes, swimming, and gym anytime. I'm in the South East and it's just the local council run gym. I did belong to a Bannatynes a few years ago and that was £52 a month.
I also pay for personal training sessions at my gym, and that's 5 sessions for £99.0 -
Oh I'm getting robbed at 55$ a month at mine, but its only 2 miles from my house and I can run back home and get ready here. US here0

£40 is $63 apparently, according to an online currency converter. And this is quite cheap for a UK gym membership, especially in the South.0

$35 a month @ Anytime Fitness, includes classes and open 24 hrs!0

Ive done this recently and would suggest what you want and will use.
You need to go round and visit to get an impression, especially if its your first gym.
Things I found were important.
Location= difference between going and not. Thats why I switched gyms.
Friendliness and availability of staff/ atmosphere. All gyms vary.
Signing for a long term contract or just a monthly one, easy to get out of.
Equipment. look at the free weights area and see if its full. Busy times are avout 4-8
Google reviews, some local small gyms are much nicer than the big chains.
Access hours and free parking. Some gyms are 24/7.
I looked in the chain called The Gym and they looked pretty good although it was brand new. If you want pool, sauna etc they cost extra. Prices for UK gyms i think are about £14-£55, so it varies a lot. The cheaper gyms are obviously more basic, but they still have all the equupment. Look for special deals as well o.e after Christmas then there will be a big rush. Please go and visit each one as they do vary in character and what suits one person will not suit another.0 -
I agree with 999tigger above. Check out the places close to where you are. Try them out for a while, before getting locked into a contract, even if that means a few extra dollars (pounds) the first month or so. We have an inexpensive community rec center membership, but I don't use it very often. I joined a CrossFit box three months ago and LOVE it. It's more money, but worth it, because I go regularly. Good luck!0

Over the past 10 years, I've had different kinds of memberships. I've had an $8 per month membership and loved it, and I've had more costly memberships and hated them.
Right now, I am of the opinion that you get what you pay for. I belong to the Equinox and pay $200 per month. I can attend any branch and they offer amenities like eucalyptus-scented towels (hot and cold), free razors, face and body lotion, mouthwash, etc. Their locker rooms are so posh you don't even need your own lock, you program the locker each time.
I can reserve Spin bike on their phone app 26 hours ahead of time - not just a place in the class, but a specific bike.
Lastly, they have celebrity trainers and the place is very, very well maintained.0 -
Xercise4less stoke 9.99 a month peak unlimited use and all classes0

I'm in Canada - when I had a membership I had it for $23/month including all classes etc.. and the daycare option. But when the renewal time came, the price was jacked up (we joined under a Father's Day special) so I refused to pay double to re-join...
